Well yes they did and it does not matter how often they happen they happen every where.
And again the government is far more dangerous than someone with a rifle hence our second amendment
Not at all.
The problem with the "we needs our guns to fights us the government" philosophy is that it is truly stupid. The government has tanks, at the end of the day, and if they really think you are enough of a pain in the ass to need to kill, they aren't going to have a very hard time doing it. Just ask David Koresh.
A second Amendment doesn't keep rogue cops from shooting black kids in the ghetto.
So the question is, is your imaginary fear a good enough reason to put up with 33,000 gun deaths, 78,000 gun injuries, 400,000 gun crimes and 270 BILLION in economic losses every year. The ironic thing is as much as you guys whine about the police state, we live in a world of security doors, militarized police forces and closed circuit TV because you guys have made the streets so dangerous with the proliferation of guns.
and speaking of crazy.
Will drugs always be available?
Will guns always be available?

You avoided the question..People would take you more seriously as the "Intellectual" you claim to be if you actually put an effort into these things.
If the drug laws are so useless, then why don't you advocate repealing them and expunging the records of everyone convicted of a crime related to them?
The answer is, you simply don't want a world where someone can buy heroin or cocaine as easily as you can buy a pack of smokes, and frankly, neither do I. Even though most drug use is harmless, the small percentage of those who cause harm mean that it's something to be discouraged.
Kind of the same thing with guns. The amount of damage done by the small percentage of gun nuts and criminals is something we really ought to be discouraging.
Will drugs always be available?
Will guns always be available?
Will you always be stupid?
Clearly, all three queries have the same answer....you will continue to lose arguments to garden tools.
